Day 2064: What have you learned from blogging? What Have I Learned From Blogging? To write! If I can't think of a response to a prompt, or my mind says I don't know what to write about, I just set down and start writing. It doesn't matter what I put on the page, as long as part of the response is relevant to the prompt. True, there are times when I look at a prompt and nothing comes to mind. In those cases I have to write anyway. If the prompt doesn't arouse some sort of response, I have to start writing because I have to make some sort of entry. If the prompt doesn't elicit some type of response, I pick out a quote and write about that. At other times I review my goals of the past week, I don't like to do this because it's usually a very short and boring entry. The only time I don't make an entry are on those days I have medical appointments. On those days I usually spend most of the day out of the house at the doctor's office or waiting for a paratransit bus. |
